In January 2007, Governor Rendell announced his comprehensive
health care reform strategy – Prescription for Pennsylvania – to
improve the accessibility, affordability, and quality of health
care in the Commonwealth.
In the last two years, great strides have been made in achieving
those goals. We have begun transforming long-term living
services, improving the care for patients with chronic
conditions such as diabetes and enacting the country's toughest
legislation to end health care facility acquired infections.
In the years ahead, we will continue implementing the remaining
initiatives found in the Prescription for Pennsylvania so that
every resident of the commonwealth has access to the quality
affordable health care they want, need and deserve.
Continuing our efforts to make health care more transparent
we have compiled a list of resources providing cost and quality
information. Check it out

Need help now? There are many health care services and
programs available to you and your family whether you have
health insurance or not. Many of them are free (if you meet
certain income requirements) or the amount of the charge is
based upon your income. Check it out here
